Abstract: The abidance and evolution of mining industry for All this information is necessary as it is an effective means of the Peruvian government is of great relevance nowadays, due to rapprochement that will help to carry out assertive dialogues the economic impact, this entails in order to increase the gross [2]. “Stakeholder analysis is a process that seeks to identify domestic product and reduce the poverty index. Nevertheless, in and describe the interests and relationships of all the the last few years this production sector suffered numerous stakeholders in a given project” [3]. In general, this analysis problems because of the complicated social relationships with the is a necessary precondition to participatory planning and rural communities near the mining projects. The purpose of this study is to analyze the probability of a social conflict due to the project management. For this reason, it is very important, in appearance of a mining project in Macusani (Puno-), using the planning stage, to determine the different existing the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) methodology to evaluate stakeholders in the communities and the variables that could the stakeholders and the entropy-weight method for the criteria. In affect each one of them. order to accomplish the evaluation, we interview seven experts in The present scientific article, seeks to accurately identify community relationships that gave us their perspectives through the above mentioned using a quantitative method. Among the the polls. In terms of results, we determine that the stakeholders possible methods to use, we can mention the application of in order of importance were communal authorities, alpaca Delphi method [4] , AHP method and FAHP method [5], livestock, local and regional government, farmers and merchants. Grey Systems [6], Shannon entropy [7], Machine Learning By the other hand, the strongest variables in a social conflict were pollution, poverty level, employment, health, economy, water [8], among others. These methods make it possible to access and security. The analysis of this case of study can improve quantify the data obtained from qualitative research, this is new innovative techniques to affront the potential appearance of a because “qualitative data are presented in the form of social conflict, in order to create a social responsibility awareness. responses to standardized questionnaires” [9]. This can generate a positive impact expressed in benefits for the In this way, we can mention some social cases in which these local communities, the government and the enterprise. methods were applied. It is important to mention that many of them were not linked to mining. For example, in the Keywords: AHP, Entropy-weight, Lithium Mining project, international framework, we can mention a study carried out Stakeholders, Social Conflict. in an exploration of hydrocarbons in the Gulf of Valencia, Spain [10]. In this study, the use of ultrasound technology I. INTRODUCTION was proposed to determine the existence of hydrocarbon deposits in the subsoil. This proposal would generate an The social factor is becoming more important for the environmental impact, which is why Shannon's entropy was development of a mining project. Currently, one of the implemented with the objective of conducting environmental biggest obstacles that mining companies must overcome is conflict analysis (ECA). the social factor since it is the most difficult to predict and, On the other hand, in the national context, there is a therefore, to control. This is basically due to the difference in research carried out for the Conga Project in Cajamarca, in worldviews that both the rural sector and the urban sector which the entropy of Shannon and the grey clustering method have. This difference is most evident when it comes to were implemented to determine the ECA and the social gaining access to the surface terrain. This permission may be impact assessment (SIA), respectively. This study proved the inconvenient if not obtained, as "one of the fundamental efficiency of combining both methods for the evaluation of challenges for mining projects is to secure the consent of socio-environmental conflicts, since it provides very detailed local communities for future access to land, and to minimize results regarding the variables that are used for their the community's exposure to business uncertainty" [1]. resolution [11]. It is essential that there is a predisposition for understanding The case study for this article was the new lithium and and tolerance on both sides, which could be achieved by uranium project, Macusani, which is located in the province implementing an active and assertive dialogue. Such of Carabaya, district of Macusani in Puno department, Peru. dialogue would be feasible if there is a prior study of This project is in the exploration stage, and with only 15% of everything that encompasses the community. For instance, the surface drilled, 2.5 million tons of lithium and 124 million the analysis of traditions, customs celebrations, main pounds of uranium have been confirmed, that is why this economic activity, levels of poverty and education, among project is heading to be the largest lithium mine not only in others.

Stakeholders and Criteria on a Mining Project using AHP and Entropy-Weight Methods the Local Communities must be of a permanent nature with 2.1. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) implementation as per signed and negotiated agreements " [13]. The AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method was applied For this study, it was essential to identify the economic to rank the stakeholders and from there, work only with the activities developed in the area of impact of the project. For five most important. This method is based on the evaluation example, among the most important, we can mention alpaca of alternatives, taking into account several criteria, which are breeding, agriculture and tourism. All these activities involve based on the fact that the experience and knowledge of the groups of people who could be affected by the Macusani participants enjoy the same predominance as the data used in Project. In order to determine the stakeholders and the the process [17]. The values given come from the Saaty scale variables that could affect them, mathematical methods were [14]; this scale was adapted to this social context and its used that can convert qualitative data into quantitative data. structure can be seen in Table 1. In this case, the method chosen to determine the Macusani district´s stakeholders was AHP method, since it allowed us Table 1. Scale of Saaty [18] to "combine all the judgments or opinions in a whole, in Value of ajn Interpretation which the alternatives are organized from the best to the 1 j and k are equally important worst" [14]. Thus, this method was based on the evaluation of 3 j is slightly more important than k 5 j is more important than k alternatives (taking into account various criteria) and on the 7 j is strongly more important than k fact that the experience and knowledge of the experts 9 j is absolutely more important than k reflected in the surveys had the same predominance as the data used in the process [15]. It is important to mention that This study was worked with 7 alternatives (represented by this method used matrices and the Saaty scale, which stakeholders) and four criteria. The steps followed in this methodology (AHP) are detailed below [14]: provided a more complex and precise analysis than would have been obtained if a qualitative method had been used. Step 1: Criteria Comparison On the other hand, thanks to the entropy-weight method, an A criteria comparison matrix was developed with the ordering of alternatives was obtained for the general following structure [14]. This matrix is shown in Equation 1. variables that could affect these stakeholders. This methodology consists of a sequence of steps to determine the 1 푎12 … 푎1푛 entropic weights of the criteria.

Stakeholders and Criteria on a Mining Project using AHP and Entropy-Weight Methods

Next, stakeholders and variables that were analyzed are possible dangers due to the new social environment, which is explained. composed of new foreign settlers.

3.1. Stakeholder groups 3.2.2. Employment (V2) According to the literature, and to the research conducted on The generation of jobs at the arrival of a new project is a economic activities and the main sources of income for the reality. This can be a favorable variable for many of the Macusani community, the eight stakeholders would be the stakeholders, since, according to the national household following: survey, the inactivity rate for Puno is 21.8% [23] .

3.1.1. Alpaca´s herdsmen (G1) 3.2.3. Health (V3) One of the most important economic activities in the In Puno, 31.92% of children die from infections in the Macusani region is the livestock of alpacas and llamas respiratory tract. This is due to the extreme cold that exists in (mostly alpacas). that area of Peru. Health, in children, adolescents and the elderly, is a factor of great importance and urgency in the 3.2.2. Local and regional government (G2) region, which is expected to improve. The provincial municipality of Carabaya (whose capital is Macusani) presents a structural organization, whose 3.2.4. Poverty level (V4) representative is Mayor Fabio Vargas Huamantuco. This In the , the rural population represents institution uses a web page as a tool to motivate direct 46.2% [23]. Likewise, Puno is part of the Peruvian highlands, interaction with its population. and according to statistics, the rural highlands have a 49.8% poverty, higher than the 21.6% that Peru presents as a country 3.2.3. Communal authorities (G3) [22]. Therefore, the arrival of a new project could have a This group was composed of citizens from the rural areas positive impact on the economy of the region, thereby near the exploitation site, there are three very important reducing poverty rates. communities identified by the company, which are Tantamaco Community, Isivilla Community and Corani 3.2.5. Education level (V5) Community [13]. This is an important factor because, in 2017, the illiteracy rate in Puno was 10.5% [23], higher than the 9.2% presented in 3.2.4. Farmers (G4) 2016 [22]. On the other hand, if one analyses the illiteracy Agricultural activity continues to be of vital importance for rate by sex in the last 10 years in Puno, the percentage of rural areas. For this reason, it is very important to identify the illiterate women is approximately four times higher than that people who grow the main products for the region, such as of men. Thus, the percentage of illiterate women and men potatoes, alfalfa and oats [22]. was 15% and 3.6%, respectively in 2017 [24].

3.2.5. People who live on tourism (G5) 3.2.6. Water access (V6) Since Macusani is very close to the Madre de Dios basin, Since there are many lakes around the zone, many people access to water by the mine would be a latent problem for the make their living by the tourism income. community, since a tension relationship would be established

in case some body of water could be damaged by mining 3.2.6. Merchants (G6) activities. Due to the diverse agricultural products that the community owns, such as potatoes, people see trade as a main activity 3.2.7. Pollution (V7) that generates a monthly income. Predominant variable in all mining projects to be established in any region. The project has high contents of uranium, a 3.2.7.

It is for this reason that this opportunity the spinning mill and the tissues for general a variable can be fundamental for the social viability of the secondary income. project because there is still not enough information about the effects that uranium and lithium have on the environment. 3.2.8. Local professionals (G8) They are people who reached a certain level of higher 3.2.8. Cultural Difference (V8) education and work in jobs with major responsibilities. One of the inevitable consequences of a mining project in the communities is the arrival of foreign people. A clear example 3.2. Variables of this is the growth of social demands generated in a The variables were selected according to the most common community due to the increase of its population, which problems that a region in the country can go through. Thus, generates pressure on the health sector and infrastructure the effect that the project would have on the locality can be systems [25]. measured in more real parameters. The lifestyle of local people is going to undergo a transformation, this change "creates concern, fear, hopes and 3.2.1.

In one of the examples developed using the AHP method and Peru, mining companies tax about 40% of all their utilities. In the entropy-weight method will be explained. spite of this, poor institutionality causes distribution problems, which remains one of the fundamental causes of A. THE AHP METHOD conflicts between mines and communities [27]. For this reason, it is important to identify the economic activities of Step 1: Criteria Comparison the place in order to promote it and make them grow with the From the surveys conducted and the sequence in Step 1, the help of the state.

Stakeholders and Criteria on a Mining Project using AHP and Entropy-Weight Methods

social conflicts for the development of mining projects in the Hectares cultivated department of Puno in general. 100000 80000 4.2.2. Poverty Level (V4) 60000 40000 The level of poverty of rural communities in Peru amounts to 20000 21.8%, of which, 34.6% is in Puno and 6.5% of that 0 population belong to extreme poverty [35]. The Peruvian Hectares cultivated Hectares Institute of Economics (IPE) in 2017 reported that the province of Carabaya has 50% more incidence [35], as shown in Fig. 3. This shows that it is a very important variable since Years it is what most affects the stakeholders.

Fig. 2. Hectares cultivated in the last ten years in Puno 4.1.5. Merchants (G6) The last main stakeholder is merchants, which have also been increasing since 2006 with 2,423 merchants until 2016 with 2,965 merchants [22], which represents a growth of 22.37%. It can be seen in Table 16 [22].

4.2. Analysis of the variables

On the other hand, we can analyze the variables obtained by the entropy-weight method. The total results in hierarchical order are presented in Table 17. Fig. 3. Incidence of poverty in the provinces of Puno [35] Table 17. Variables obtained by the entropy-weight method In addition, 5,423 people were registered in poverty, which Determination of variables represents 41.2% of the total population of Macusani; and E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E6 E7 Results 987 people in extreme poverty, which represents 7.5% [36].

Employment (V2) The variable employment is of great importance since that is 4.2.1. Pollution (V7) the first improvement that the community of a mining According to the hierarchy, this variable is the most company directly perceives. If we analyze the case of Puno, important of all, which means that any impact made on the this region "has a high percentage of informal employment", environment, would have a very strong impact on the 85.3% is informal since only 22.6% of the PEA has at least behavior of the community. According to 2017 annual report higher education [35]. [22], it can be seen that the loss of forests per year in hectares has been increasing during the last 10 years, this causes the 4.2.4.

Security (V1) Every single process of analysis evaluation is known to Rural communities in Peru have a low tolerance for criminal have limitations that come out afloat during the interview acts and Macusani is not the exception. It has been known with the experts and their feedback given. For example, it is that the guardians of the community have burned alive necessary to notice that the poll is given in a specific lapse criminals without the local police could do something about time and that the scene can change in a political election it. We can conclude that a negative alteration to the context. Secondly, it is important that the facilitator who communal security will be determinant for the occurrence of perform the poll can be prepare enough to elucidate all the a social conflict, if they link this fact with the beginning of the operations of the mining company. questions and doubts of the experts in order to obtain specific answer to the questions that are indicated.
